Final Call
The early-season sample and reported personnel changes do not establish independently calibrated spread, total or win probabilities. No supported price edge is assigned.

Evidence and Scoring Context
The early-season sample and reported personnel changes do not establish independently calibrated spread, total or win probabilities. No supported price edge is assigned. No unsupported numerical forecast range or wagering-confidence percentage is assigned.
Current DraftKings snapshot: Cincinnati Bengals -2.5 (-115); total 51.5, Over -102 / Under -118. Protection and secondary availability can change explosive-play opportunities. Neither the reported absences nor the market’s high total quantify the net effect on scoring; a calibrated distribution is missing.
A likely winner and a favorable price are separate judgments. Spread and total probabilities cannot be substituted for the moneyline probability. The half-point total has no whole-number push outcome.

The captured home moneyline requires 58.68% wins to break even; the away price requires 45.45%. After normalizing the pair, the home market share is 56.35%. That share is market-implied, not our confidence. Over requires 50.50% and Under 54.13% at these prices, excluding pushes where applicable.
